The transfer was confirmed in a statement on Lazio’s official website, although they did not disclose the length of Caicedo’s contract or a fee

Caicedo moved to Espanyol in 2014 following a brief spell with Abu Dhabi outfit Al Jazira and scored 24 goals in 103 games for the Barcelona-based club, although he only managed a pair of LaLiga strikes last season.

The 28-year-old could make his debut when Lazio face Juventus in the Supercoppa Italiana at the Stadio Olimpico on August 13.
